Description:   Opened: 2002-03-14 07:27 0000 
/etc/init.d/apmd start fails saying that another apmd is already
started, and I should delete /var/run/apdm.pid if this is not correct.

Found out, that apmd creates its pid-file and the option 
--make-pidfile --pidfile /var/run/apmd.pid tries to create another one

fix: change to:
#       start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/apmd \
#               --make-pidfile --pidfile /var/run/apmd.pid -- ${APMD_OPTS}
        start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/apmd -- ${APMD_OPTS}

Hi

I do not use APM, but ACPI, so if you could help me here ..

Try to change it to:

    start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/apmd.pid \
        --startas /usr/sbin/apmd -- ${APMD_OPTS}

and see if that works fine.

The difference is, it will start apmd, and then check if the pid is created ok.
